It looks as if they must have problems at the venue, the match was supposed to start at 10am, then 11.00 and now 11.30.

The match on stadium court has started , but no sign of Laura's yet. Drag she has had so much hanging around.

Two DF in game 9, and Laura is broken. Just fails to break back, and loses the set 6-4
Only 40% first serves in

That's the journey-woman Romanians first win against a higher ranked opponent in a year

 Says a lot about Laura's current form then. Time to call an end to the season I think, and get in some hard work before the new year.

Not really a surprising result given how Laura has done in recent weeks. As it turns out, she would have been much better off ending her season a month ago rather than carrying on into November for no reward. The start of 2017 will be huge for her.

You have to wonder how much longer she will want to carry on if the results she's been having just lately don't improve. It surely can't be much fun given the heady heights she was occupying prior to the injury.

I agree - think the start of 2017 will indeed be crucial.

Laura has had a terrible injury and a very hard recovery. As long as she is willing to keep going I am willing to support her.
